Chapter 235
This was a classic scene in TV shows: the wife tries on a wedding dress, and the husband is left speechless by her beauty, showering her with compliments. Selena thought back and realized Everett had never actually called her beautiful. She tilted her head slightly, her eyes brimming with hope.
"You make me want to strip you down right this instant."
His voice was deep and smooth, like a cello's melody, but his words were bold and audacious.
Who would have guessed that the dignified CEO of Bennett Corporation, who seemed so poised and reserved in public, was actually a rogue at heart?
Selena felt a mix of shyness and irritation. "Everett, people are watching," she murmured.
She sounded annoyed, but to him, it sounded like a playful tease, stirring his desire effortlessly.
He pulled her closer. "Relax, they're more discreet than you think."
With that, Selena noticed the showroom was empty. The staff had already left, even kindly closing the door behind them.
"So, no matter what we do or how wild it gets, no one will interrupt us."
Selena was at a loss for words.
With a mischievous grin, Everett ran his hands down her back, finding the zipper of her wedding dress and smoothly pulling it down.
The dress, which had seemed so intricate to put on, slipped off with ease.
The gown puddled on the floor, and Selena stood in her corset, her curves accentuating even more.
She saw his eyes darken with desire.
"Mrs. Bennett, didn't you say I was less than a beast for doing nothing last night? As your husband, I can't let you down."
Selena was flustered; that wasn't what she meant at all. He was twisting her words deliberately!
She felt too self-conscious to be close to him in such a public setting. She tried to push him away, but he caught her wrist. When he saw her retaliation, she kneed upwards.
Everett dodged swiftly, then chuckled, slightly irritated.
This time, he didn't hold back. He swept everything off the table and pressed her against it.
His firmness against her softness sent a thrill of danger through the air.
"Mrs. Bennett, that was quite ruthless of you. Aren't you worried about really disabling me? What about your happiness for the rest of your life?" Surrounded by large mirrors in broad daylight, Selena could see her flushed cheeks and her vulnerable form beneath Everett's strength from every angle. She shut her eyes in embarrassment, refusing to acknowledge him.
In these situations, he was relentless, never considering her feelings whenever and wherever he wanted. The more she resisted, the more intrigued he became
Everett dipped his head to kiss her, starting with her quivering eyelashes, moving to her rosy cheeks, and finally her soft lips.
As he indulged in her sweetness, he couldn't help but wonder what enchantment she had cast on him that made him crave her endlessly...
While he was kissing her neck, his phone started ringing.
At first, they ignored it, lost in their moment, but the persistent ringing eventually killed the mood.
Selena opened her watery eyes,
worried it might be a call from the
hospital since Josh had just had
surgery yesterday. She gently nudged him. "Everett, maybe you
should get that." Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
He lifted his head, annoyed at the interruption, but also concerned it could be important. With a sigh, he reached for his phone and answered, "Hello."
